Tulip Tours

Would you like a local gardening expert to enhance your customers’ experience touring the Skagit Valley tulip fields? Then you need to contact the Washington State University Master Gardeners. Master Gardener step-on guides provide an informative overview of our wonderful area and are available for your group tour during the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival. Touring companies should e-mail Toni at tonitulip@comcast.net or call 360-848-9053 for pricing and scheduling information.

(Unfortunately, at this time the Master Gardeners do not arrange or provide the transportation for tours. We are “step-on guides” for tours that you or others arrange, bringing your transportation to us.)

The consensus is that the most compelling reason for WSU Master Gardener involvement in the tulip tour program is our status as a participating member of the Skagit County agricultural community. As such, and in accordance with our mission statement we should be engaged in any effort that promotes agriculture in the Skagit Valley.
